Some of us obviously lack something. I wonder what it could be? Look here (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/russia/8579726/Vladimir-Putin-hires-former-glamour-model-as-personal-photographer.html).

Does this mean we have to become the leader of Russia or a former Miss Russia? ;)

I guess it shows that Michael is wrong about restricting cat photos on LuLa.

I wonder how many White House photographers have posed in bustiers? (that's boo-stee-ay). Can you even begin to imagine what would happen if Obama hired that girl?
But gawd, look how latent sexism has crept up on us! I thought I was enlightened. It just could be that she's a good photographer, that's possible too.

I came across a well researched article that stated pretty clearly that being physically attractive is, in fact, part of a successful career path. The article referenced above is more of the same.

That's the kind of person I'd like to hire, too; however, as I can't even bring myself to hire a lady to clean house for me, I guess it won't happen any time soon. I wonder if Putin is a close, personal friend of Silvio Berlusconi's? They could all get some cool shots in Sardinia together... even Lap Dog might get invited.

Well, I don't imagine it's a requirement but it's obviously a possibility. I've no idea what you look like, so I suggest you take a careful look in a mirror and then follow whichever route you think will be the more straightforward.

I think there's absolutely no doubt about it; people are attracted to beautiful people, at least initially, and that's all it takes to get the break, and if you can do the cooking too, you're home and dry.

I know reading and research is frowned upon here, but there's a whole book (http://www.amazon.com/Survival-Prettiest-Science-Nancy-Etcoff/dp/0385479425) written about the subject. Very good read - it gives an estimate of how much men earn per extra inch of height (taller men earn more than short) for example.

Can I get points for waist circumference?

Sadly, negative points only - or Schewe, for one, would be a God.
I believe there's another male attribute whose length can be influential in certain types of success, though.
